Eastwood’s manzanita

Eastwood’s manzanita is a very uncommon, sprawling evergreen shrub.  It typically grows up to 2 ft. tall in the garden and can double or triple in width.  The foliage is more grayish-green than other manzanitas, the bark is a beautiful red, and the flowers are white.

Once established it is both deer resistant and drought tolerant making it a beautiful choice for a worry free garden.  Butterflies and other beneficial insects love this low growing shrub, and it is very nice in the garden.  Avoid unnecessary  pruning, but  prune selectively to shape.
